Lagercrantz took over the series after creator Stieg Larsson died in 2004. The Swedish author wrote the first three thrillers, which became an international and posthumous phenomenon.

Knopf editor-in-chief Sonny Mehta says "Revenge is not a fantasy for Lisbeth" and promises she will "exact it with a vengeance."
